Here's why you'll love it and why you should stop in if you're ever in Corpus Christi.
1. You can touch stingrays! This one popped up to say hello.
2. There are lots of fun photo ops.
3. The sharks are awesome.
4. You can be mesmerized by jelly fish. My daughter also got to (safely) touch one.
5. The flamingos are gorgeous and you can see them up close! This one kept talking to us.
Also, the gift store is fun.
Plus there are various shows throughout the day, so it's potentially a place you can spend for hours on end.
If you're looking for a place to eat after you explore the Texas State Aquarium, I recommend Blackbeards! It's nearby and the food is delicious.
Have you ever been to the Texas State Aquarium?

I always love aquarium and been to one in the States, the San Diego Seaworld aqurium where you can touch the sea animals. The flamingo in the parks are pretty cute and love their pink orange colors.
ReplyDeleteI have always loved going to the aquarium and this one sounds like an amazing one. I would love to spend the day there.
ReplyDeleteMy family has visited several aquariums and have enjoyed everyone of them. If we ever get down to Texas we will have to make a stop to see this aquarium
ReplyDeleteI love how they have thought of the social media generation and creates so many photo opportunities around the aquarium. The flamingos are simply gorgeous, it's so nice that they are so friendly.

ReplyDeleteAquariums are always so much fun. I find them interesting and a 'step above' the zoo because you can't always see these types of creatures and learn all about them.

ReplyDeleteI've actually been when we lived in Texas too! I had such a fun time and I would definitely go back if we move down there again.
